Abstract: | A new strategy for immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) has been presented by self-assembling gold nanoparticles on chitosan hydrogel modified Au electrode. From a mildly acidic chitosan solution, a chitosan film is electrochemically deposited on Au electrode surface via a negative voltage bias. This process is accompanied by the hydrogen evolution reaction, and the released hydrogen gas made the deposited chitosan film with porous structure, which facilitates the assembly of gold nanoparticles and HRP. The resulting substrates were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The immobilized HRP displayed an excellent catalytic property to the reduction of H2O2 in the presence of methylene blue mediator. The resulting biosensor (HRP-modified electrode) showed a wide dynamic range of 8.0 microM-15 mM H2O2, and the linear ranges were 8.0 microM-0.12 mM and 0.50-12 mM, with a detection limit of 2.4 microM estimated at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. Moreover, the biosensor remained about 85% of its original sensitivity after four weeks' storage. |
